The Sunrise Association is pleased to announce the opening of Aurora Day Camp in Atlanta— the first day camp, offered free of charge, for children with cancer and their siblings — in the state of Georgia.

Aurora Day Camp, now in its 2nd summer, brings the simple pleasures of childhood back to children struggling with cancer, changing months of loneliness and isolation into summers filled with sunshine, laughter and happiness. And because Aurora is a day camp, it does all this while allowing the children to continue their medical treatment and enjoy the comfort and safety of their own homes at night.

Aurora Day Camp is a proud member of the Sunrise Association, whose mission is to bring back the joys of childhood to children with cancer and their siblings world-wide, through the creation of Day Camps, Year-Round Programs and In-Hospital Recreational Activities, all offered free of charge.

There are currently seven other Day Camps that are members of the Sunrise Association — three in New York (on Long Island, Staten Island, & in Pearl River), three in Israel (Even Yehuda and Be’er Sheva), and one in Maryland (Baltimore).
